How Did the 2018 Midterms Change the House of Representatives?

Visualization

Data Notes

The 116th Congress will be seated today, so I wanted to use some data to show how the House was changed by the 2018 midterm elections. This visualization uses data I gathered from Wikipedia on January 2nd, 2019. I used Google Sheets to scrape the data and Tableau to visualize it. I plan to make more visualizations about congress using this dataset. You can follow us on Twitter see them as soon as they are ready.
